Horror from the Deep

Still sick...I was just playing "Symphony of the Night" in my basement, minding my own business, when I saw this dark object on the side of my folding closet door. I thought perhaps it was the door hinge and ignored it. Some minutes later, I caught sight of it again...on the surface of the door...frightened, I clicked my lamp on and spied its true from: a rather large, beetle-like insect (I'd find and provide a picture, but that'll just sceeve everyone out). I stared at it, unsure of what to do. It froze, then crawled across my door some more...gently rapping, rapping on my closet door. I first tried to vacuum it up with a hand vac, but the suction wasn't strong enough (!!), so I grabbed a game box, determined to smash it. It slunk between the door and the above jam, so I seized the knob, slid it open, and thrust it shut over and over until I heard a buzz:
"Nevermore."
It tumbled down and I shrieked, hopping back. I stood still for a moment, then put a box in front of the bottom door jam, adding footstools in front of that. I played on, for I wasn't going to let that beast stop my fun, and after an untimely death, I turned the game off and went upstairs. It lives in my closet now...waiting for my return...okay, that was a bit dramatic, I'll admit. But it was fun to write. I love Poe...but, seriously, that thing is down there waiting for me and I'm afraid to confront it. It's HUMONGOUS. My blockade won't stop its pursuit. Perhaps I'll go back down there and finish it off...I'll need to get in my closet eventually. Sigh...I'll end with this video that's really only a song accompanied by a picture:

It's the song heard in Master Librarian's chamber and my favorite song from "Symphony." Despite the video showing a picture of the album cover, this song (of course) isn't included on the soundtrack, for whatever reason. It makes me think of a crowded street in Medieval Europe, like in England or something, and there's one suspicious person slinking around the people. I just finished reading "The Merchant of Venice," so maybe that's why. I must be thinking of Shylock, since this song sounds very Middle Eastern and he's the Jew. I'm being very creative today...
